Bases: ABC

Deprecated: Interface for Quantum Real Time Evolution.

The RealEvolver interface has been superseded by the qiskit.algorithms.time_evolvers.RealTimeEvolver interface. This interface will be deprecated in a future release and subsequently removed after that.

Deprecated since version 0.24.0

The class qiskit.algorithms.evolvers.real_evolver.RealEvolver is deprecated as of qiskit-terra 0.24.0. It will be removed no earlier than 3 months after the release date. Instead, use the interface qiskit.algorithms.time_evolvers.RealTimeEvolver. See https://qisk.it/algo_migration for a migration guide.

Methods

Parameters

evolution_problem (EvolutionProblem) – The definition of the evolution problem.

Returns

Evolution result which includes an evolved quantum state.
